"The Mail on Sunday published messages Andrew allegedly sent to Ed Perkins, then the queen's deputy press secretary, in 2011 saying he had asked one of his close protection officers to obtain information about Giuffre. According to the messages, Andrew told Perkins he had given the officer Giuffre's date of birth and confidential nine-digit social security number and claimed she had a criminal record in the US."
"Giuffre, who took her own life earlier this year, alleged that she was forced to have sex with Andrew on three occasions including when she was 17, while she was being trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. Andrew is under growing pressure over his close links to Epstein, including reports this weekend that he was introduced to a second of the paedophile financier's victims."
Leaked emails allege Prince Andrew passed Virginia Giuffre's date of birth and a confidential nine-digit US social security number to a taxpayer-funded Metropolitan close protection officer and asked the officer to obtain information about her hours before a widely circulated photo emerged. Government ministers described the claims as deeply concerning and said they should be investigated. There is no suggestion the officer complied. Giuffre, who took her own life earlier this year, alleged she was trafficked and forced to have sex with Andrew as a teenager by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Andrew has relinquished royal titles amid growing pressure.
